  • How Syrian Refugee Families Are Coping During COVID-19
    Tragedy Tears Through Lebanon. Syrians Are Marginalized More Than Ever. As told by Syrian refugees whose lives remain in British Columbia, but compassion flies back home. Syrian refugee family’s youngest daughters, Nour Khalaf (nine years old) standing behind her little sister, Sarah Khalaf (three years old). PRINCE GEORGE, Canada - An eager ray of Saturday sunshine trickles in through Syrian refugee Aliyah Kora's window. The week has finally presented its gift. She instinctively goes downstairs, decamping to her living room. With her husband selling food at the local market and her five children fast asleep, this is the time she has for herself, her one respite, to help quiet the onslaught of worries that plague her thoughts. "Mama?" Her voice makes the turbulent journey to Turkey via WhatsApp, before reaching the ear of her mother. Though she dearly wishes to be in Syria with the rest of her children, Aliyah's mother seeks medical attention, a practically impossible phenomenon in her hometown, Aleppo, stemming from the sheer enormity of the cost. Aliyah's mother is in dire need of heart surgery, having been turned away from Lebanon she remains on the outskirts of Turkey. Aliyah spends the rest of the morning connecting with her brothers and sisters, who have been scattered helplessly throughout Syria, with some edging towards the borders, where food is scarce and death prevailing. The usual tranquility this morning brings her, is however, clouded. Burdened by a fresh layer of misery, afflicting displaced Syrians today, that she so narrowly escaped. This haze of sorrow came about on 4th August 2020 when an explosion fuelled by a large amount of ammonium nitrate stored at the port of Lebanon's capital city, Beirut, ripped through the city.

  • Liberalism Is Adultism
    Draft of Nov. 24, 2020 Liberalism Is Adultism Deirdre Nansen McCloskey forthcoming (in Spanish) in Antonella Marty, ed., The Handbook of Freedom: A Guide to Economic, Political, and Cultural Liberalism. Bilbao, Spain: Editorial Planeta/Deusto We all want to be adults. You want the self-rule of someone seen as an adult by others in a liberated society. It is an honor and a delight to pursue your own projects harmless to others—knitting, or model railroading—or even helpful to others—working and then trading. Remember how you felt when you first went to high school, so clearly on the way to becoming an adult. Remember how you felt when you earned your first paycheck, and were no longer going to Daddy for all your money. Remember when you cast your first vote. That you want self-rule as an adult does not mean that you want to be lonely, or that you disdain community. In 1819 a French philosopher, Benjamin Constant, spoke of two kinds of liberty, which he called “ancient” and “modern.” The modern one is the lovely self-rule, the paycheck honestly earned. The ancient one is the equally lovely right to participate, in for example a Greek city state, proudly carrying a shield in the phalanx. “Having a voice” is the present-day phrase for it, the dignity among other citizenly dignities of a vote. Without a vote as an adult, you are a social child, a non- person, disregarded, officially subordinated. Some men opposed giving women the vote because women were after all subordinated to their fathers and then their husbands.

Based upon our firm belief that our greatest asset as a foundation is our network of grantees, we wanted to link together the many different organizations whose work we are now supporting as part of a broad collective to remove the racial barriers that limit opportunities for vulnerable children. Our intention is to ensure that our grantees and the broader community can connect with peers, expand their perceptions about possibilities for their work and deepen their understanding of key strategies and tactics in support of those efforts. In 2011, we worked to build this community We believe in a different path forward.

  • Female Identity from Repression to Resistance
    CHAPTER VI Female identity From repression to resistance The role of women and issues relating to women’s sexual identity are recurrent themes in Indonesian literature emanating from Bali.1 In Chapter V the centrality of women’s roles in Balinese social relationships that are narrowly defi ned in caste terms was discussed. While issues relating to caste generally enable the construction of female identity in traditional terms and in a domestic context, a variety of other, more modern models of female identity in public contexts are allocated to women in Balinese society and literature. They are portrayed as rape victims, slave traders, prostitutes, pre- marital sexual partners, social and political activists, and symbols of oppression. There is a signifi cant change in the way female characters are depicted in Indonesian literature from Bali throughout the twentieth century. With few exceptions, in works from the colonial and national revolution periods most female characters are depicted as being powerless under a male dominated social and cultural hegemony, whereas in works from the late New Order and reformation periods they fearlessly challenge this oppression. The shift in the representation of women from repression to resistance challenges the widely accepted image of Balinese women as being subservient and sexualized objects and also proposes a new way of defi ning Balinese female identity. In the introduction to a special issue of Rima devoted to women writers and women’s issues in recent Indonesian literature, 1 For a detailed bibliography of short stories and plays discussed in this chapter, see Appendix F.
